I left early again this morning to go to the RDW for the identity check. Didn't have to drive as long this time, for this check I could just go to the nearest inspection centre.
Had to be there at 8 o'clock and I was even first in line. The spot of the chassis number was inspected and also all of the documents and pictures I took with me.
Thankfully this all turned out good. Normally you'd have to make a new appointment to get the chassis number re-affixed. But I got lucky, the one who's authorized to re-affix chassis numbers was present and also had some extra time. So the chassis number got re-affixed already. :) It was a bit of a search for a suitable spot since the tool they use for it is quite big and apparently doesn't work well on tubes. Thankfully there's one nice flat area on the quad bike, right below the seat. I did have to remove the whole rear fender but the chassis number is on it now. :)
After all this I came home from the RDW again with a good feeling. Just still have to modify a few things now and then I can go back for the approval test. Hopefully it won't take as long this time till I can go there.

Just a quick update before I go to the RDW tomorrow for the identity check of the frame.
Since the approval test I didn't really do much anymore. I did already start making a system that gives a warning signal when you get off the quad bike and it's still in drive mode. I placed a switch in the left foot peg, looked like the best place to me. With a flash relay I'll just let all of the LED's of the drive mode buttons flash. Should be good enough. But it's still not quite working, need a few more small parts for this.
For the rest I've been busy making the brake system original again since last friday. I had the handbrake attached and also all of the brake lines connected to the brake cylinder of the footbrake. I just couldn't get any brake pressure anymore after that. I've tried everything to bleed the brake system but no luck. So I inspected the brake cylinder but couldn't really notice anything strange.
It could be that the rubbers are just worn out a bit since I still remember when I bleeded the brake system the first time about 2 years ago black brake fluid came out of it. Already thought that was odd but it did still work just fine. Few months ago I bleeded the brake system again and already had a lot less brake pressure, now nothing at all anymore. So I quickly had to buy a new brake cylinder and chose for a better one right away. A Brembo that has once been on a KTM motorcycle. This one works perfectly, bleeding was quite easy again. I just still have the brake system seperated since I don't have a double banjo bolt with the right thread size, will look into this after the identity check of the frame. More important right now is that the brakes are working well again.
For tomorrow I'll just have to wait and see. Hope it'll all go well so I can quickly go back for the approval test again. I'll let you all know how it went tomorrow.

Yesterday I woke up very early to place the quad bike on the trailer so I could go to the RDW.
It was a very long trip and I arrived there safely and on time. Was just a bit too early, no one was there yet so I had to wait at the main entrance for a bit.
It was all still very exciting, but then they started with the test. Unfortunately it quickly turned out that it would fail the test because the chassis number wasn't clear enough after sandblasting and spraying of the frame. You can still see it but it's hard to read it by just looking at it. According to them the chassis numbers are never really affixed deep enough with Chinese vehicles. It's a shame really but it is what it is. I will now get an identity check on the frame where they'll see if the frame is still the original one. I'm just going to assume that this will all go well and then the chassis number will just get affixed again.
But even if the chassis number was all good the quad bike probably still wouldn't have passed the test. At the beginning of this project I already seperated the brake system so I could operate the front and rear brake independently. Much safer this way, just like on a motorcycle. I also removed the hand brake since this wasn't working, I had this hydraulic after seperating the brakes so there's still a hand brake present. But that's apparently not allowed, the brake system has to stay original, even if it's actually worse then. So I'll have to change this back again before going back for another test.
They also checked a few other things and I'll have to modify some small things. But that all isn't much work, the main things are definately the chassis number and the brakes.
That was it for the less fun things of the approval. What actually was fun is that they weighed the quad bike. The total weight turned out to be 271 kg (597 lbs). Way more than I expected, thought it would be around 240 kg (529 lbs) somewhere. But it's still below the maximum allowed weight. It's just that the amount of seats will be adjusted from 2 to 1 on paper. Have no issues with this since no one fits on the back anyway.
But they actually weigh the weight seperately on the front and rear axle. This was very interesting since I was really curious about the weight balance. And what do you know, the weight balance is a perfect 50/50. On both the front and rear axle they weighed 135,5 kg (298,5 lbs). This was a nice surprise, I didn't even try to get the weight balance this good.
But that's about it for the approval. Have to wait and see now when I can go for the frame. This might just take a few weeks.
For the rest there are still some problems with EMC (electromagnetic compatibility / noise) and it's definately possible that I need to get a seperate EMC test done which will cost around 1500 euros. Not really looking forward to that either but I still don't know everything about this. Will probably know more about this next week.

After a few busy weeks of only making drawings and documents everything is finally ready for the road approval test at the RDW. And just in time as well, the approval is already tomorrow. :) I'm very excited and really wonder what they'll say about it. And ofcourse if it'll pass the test. I hope so and have a lot of faith that it'll go just fine. But ofcourse there can always be some small thing that needs to be improved, we will see.
Here are a few of the drawings that I have to take with me tomorrow. I also have a lot of pictures and a folder filled with documents of all the components that are used. I really have no idea if they need all of this but it's always better to have too much than too little.
What I also had to make is an instruction manual. But just for the electric drivetrain. How it all works and needs to be operated.
Everything's ready and in position for tomorrow. Just still have to place the quad bike on the trailer and I can leave right away.
Hopefully it all ends well. I'll let you all know right away tomorrow evening. :)

The day before yesterday I already said that today would be very fun. And indeed it was, I met some very nice people and was able to ride on an electric 4x4 ATV and also drive in an electric 4x4 UTV. ATV-Europe came to visit today. They're from Zeeland (Most south-west province of the Netherlands) and they sell these ATV's and UTV's throughout Europe. They were very interested in the quad bike I converted myself and were also very curious what I would say about their ATV and UTV. It was all really great, they both were very nice to ride and drive. Ofcourse the ATV was the most fun for me.
Now you might be wondering how they got these things here. Well, just with 2 Dodge RAM's. The ATV on the back and the UTV on a trailer. The whole terrain was suddenly full here. Was really great to see.
The cars were awesome already but I really liked the ATV and UTV very much as well. Just didn't really know where to actually test them so we just put them in the field together with our ponies. This was really fun, they weren't even afraid since these things didn't make any sound but once you'd get a bit close they all started running.
Ofcourse they also checked my own quad bike and thought it was really awesome. They even think that this might be able to sell if I were to put these kind of models on the market for a good price. So who knows, maybe something for in the future. But yeah, lets first see if I can get it approved so I can actually start testing it on the road.
It was all really fun, unfortunately the time just flew by very quickly as well and they had to return home again. But I will definately see them again some time.
And to close off the day even better I just got a response from the RDW that the EMC certification for the controller is okay after all. The directives for this turn out to be pretty much the same for a quad bike and car. This was more or less the only thing that had me worried so I again have full faith now that the rest of the approval will go fine as well. Just 2 more weeks to go, very exciting!

I've just experienced a miscarriage.
It's my second one; I also experienced one in between the births of my two boys. From go to wo, it has been an amazing, transcendent experience. How can this be, you ask?
A few months ago now, in the evening, I was meditating, and I thought to make contact with the little girl I had been pregnant with back in 2013. That little spirit was female, and I named her Montserrat, after the beautiful mountain range in Spain. I had a beautiful journey with her and she is around me; she is a part of our family and as such I talk to her now and then. It's lovely to know she is there. My kids know they have a sister.
As I chatted telepathically with her, I felt like I was communicating with a friend; someone close to my own age... I hadn't communicated with her for a long while, and as I was chatting, among other things I communicated to her how it would have been nice to bring through a female; to continue the female line in our family, of which I am a part...
No sooner had I done this than she said to me very clearly "Not me, but US... !" and she pushed the energy of another person in between our communication. I was quite taken aback for a moment... Then I realised she was talking about another person!! I was able to perceive them, both of them, jumping up and down, hugging each other and laughing. They were very excited that I had got the message.... and to be coming here to Gaia. I could perceive the feminine energy hugging and jumping up and down!
Wow! I was excited too - I could feel their excitement and that made me excited. I ran to the bathroom where I still had an old pregnancy test. I did it and a faint line showed that yes, I was indeed pregnant. Although we had not been planning a new little baby we were by no means against it - we had been humming and hawing about it for some time. I told my husband all of this in the morning... He found it hard to believe, even upon seeing the test, but that's guys for you! Even with the evidence right in front of their eyes! But this was lovely news to us both.
I checked the computer with my last missed period [LMP] the next morning and according to the dates I was five-six weeks pregnant. Wow! I thought... I have a bit on! I hope am not too tired on my upcoming trip.
The news of this pregnancy made me question a lot... I was off to Brazil soon... Would the flights and the radiation from them harm the pregnancy? I already have two kids... Was I too old and tired to be a mother to a newborn again? Where would we all live? Currently we are renting but I need to be with my husband to have babies -- and he's spending half the week a long way away... How would I do that? Would I move back to Sydney? Would we fit in our house? What if it was twins? How would I cope? Was my husband too old? Would I stay in Byron Bay? What about all the radiation that I left behind? The pollution? I went off to Brazil pondering all these issues, in a whirlwind of questions and thoughts.
While I was away on this spiritual journey, although I did my best, I just couldn't get the idea of home out of my head. [Where would I raise these kids? Where was my home? Where did I live?] Accepting my ceaseless mind was a task. Although I did my best to quiet it, eventually the ego was too noisy and so I chose to sit in quiet acceptance with it... to let the ego do its thing, to let it worry and nut it out; to accept that I was a Mother and this is what a Mother's mind can do sometimes, when she is concerned about her family.
While away I was meditating and a clear image of a house came into my mind. My third eye throbbed. The house had a roof line with an apex and felt like it was in a particular spot in Sydney.
After two weeks of this chatter I came home with a great desire and need to know what was going on in my body. Knowing that I was now about 7 or 8 weeks pregnant I felt comfortable booking a scan to tell me how the pregnancy was coming along. At this first scan we were given the news that the baby's size did not match the gestational age. The scan showed a five week foetus, not a 7-8 week one. The lady was kind and sympathetic; she did not want to be the bearer of bad news but it didn't look good. We were told that we needed to check in again in a week but that it didn't look good. Being spiritual and accepting of all dharma, this did not sadden me; my husband and I accepted our position and gave each other a hug. We booked in a scan for the following week in Byron Bay to confirm the inevitable.
A week later we arrived at the clinic in Byron Bay. After a minute the lady with the scan told us that things had changed again... We were definitely pregnant! We had a healthy heartbeat, and it looked like we had two little babies in there. Twins!! Well! Our scan was consistent with the previous one and the foetus that was visible was now 1 week bigger - 6 weeks old. Once again we adjusted our focus to include babies - not one but two! We congratulated each other on our fertility and, a bit dazed, went about our business for the next week or so.
Unfortunately after this transvaginal ultrasound I started to bleed. In normal circumstances I would never have had any ultrasounds up to this point... Personally, I don't like them. While others may disagree, I believe the high frequency sound is not conducive to healthy development, and that little developing foetuses should be left alone until they are through the first part of development and that one scan at 12 weeks is more than sufficient. I couldn't quite believe that I had ended up having two already; though I can see how it happened as I type it out here.
The bleeding was light spotting at first and dried blood so I didn't worry. However, it continued and it didn't stop for another week. At this time it began to get red; fresh blood. Now it was time to go to the doctor. After blood tests to confirm pregnancy I was asked to wait another week, which I did. The bleeding became worse. I got cramps. At this point I was doing everything I could to hold onto the pregnancy. I was praying, I was singing, I was laughing, I was eating amazingly healthy food. I remember crying on my bed one night from both the pain and the emotions, and even then, I felt a warm energy telling me not to worry, that this was how it had to be. I even felt that I was being a bit silly for being so indulgent as to think this was all about me. I was asked to have another ultrasound. This time one foetus was visible and the heartbeat was lower... this little one was definitely struggling. With all the cramps and bleeding I was very impressed that anything was still going on in there.
As I came home I thought it was time to really take this to God-Goddess. My littlest boy was being babysat and so I could sit outside in meditation, with Mother Nature and all the energy that is Life. I went deep, deep inside and I spoke of all my feelings to Source and I sat with them... and then I let them go. Then I was free to communicate. I shared that I was doing everything I could to hold onto the little spirits inside of me, that I was ready to do this Motherhood thing again that the little spirits would enter a warm and loving home. Then finally, I added, that if these little souls needed to go back home, I would release them, and let them go.
This was the watershed moment; up until this point I had been holding on to the pregnancy, but now I let it go. I felt a huge shift... and waves of happiness and joy and light filled me. I got up from the meditation feeling refreshed; I knew that no matter what happened that it would be the right thing. Although my physical body was still going through a lot with the bleeding and the cramps, my spiritual body felt light and happy.
That night I had the most amazing dream. I dreamt that the house we are living in was covered in flowers... flowers were blooming and growing all over it.. a gorgeous cacophony of colour and fragrance and delight was everywhere the eye could see. Pink roses climbed over the tables and up the walls and happiness vibrated through me. All the colours of the rainbow were around me! Dreams of blooming flowers are always a good sign; and I certainly felt it was a good sign; that I was developing, blooming, growing in the right direction. It had been right to let the energy of the little souls and the pregnancy go.
Eventually my body did miscarry naturally. For those who have not experienced it, a miscarriage at this stage, is Birth- it is accompanied by your waters breaking, by the wild, transcendent state that accompanies Birth... You have contractions; you double over in the moment with them, full-on contractions! There's no way around it; the breathing... the transcendent state. There is blood, a lot of blood.
Contractions. Breath. Prayer. Blood.
Contractions. Breath. Prayer. Blood...
Moving into the state to become one with the Divine Feminine and all who have done this before you. So good to be in a warm bath, to catch the tissue as it comes out, to catch the blood. Sharing the moment with all womankind. The tears and torment of birth. Your ancestors watching you, holding you. Alone in my house, on my knees, crying in my bathroom. I could feel my energy open. I felt so alone, so vulnerable. Yet watched, cared for. I knew what was happening and I let it happen. I let it wash out of me, and over me. I called for someone to watch my kids. Eventually I was able to lay on my bed and rest. The worst was over.
It's taken me weeks to process this pregnancy... it's been an amazing journey. Full of magic from the get-go. Full of mystery. Full of life at the coal-front of womanhood... All the tears, the torment, the blood, the life... Being a woman, going through kundalini, walking this path, learning when to hold on and when to let go.... All of this I share, so you can know this is Life, this is She, this is you, this is We.

Wow! I didn't even realise just how long it's been since I've posted until I started scrolling through my photos looking for what to include with this post! (Yes, photos ahead!) So much has happened in the past three and a half months! While I never planned to take such a long break so soon after getting Following Rafiki all set up, I certainly don't regret any of the many other things that have been taking up my time recently.
I've got a couple of other posts in the works (2 travel and 1 personal development!) but for a couple of reasons I've decided to start off with something new for me: a Five on Friday post! For those who don't know, Five on Friday is a popular post in the blogging world, which is basically just a quick way to keep readers up to date with personal things that have been going on.
I really enjoy reading other blogs, and discovered that the ones I keep going back to are those which share a little more personal information. The people I feel I know a bit about; their favourite TV shows, what they do to relax, the people they most enjoy spending time with, and the places they dream of travelling to.
I absolutely LOVE writing about passion, purpose and helping others get the most out of their lives, just as I am always striving to live my best life. But why would anyone take advice from someone they know nothing about? I know I never would! So starting today I'll be popping up on Fridays to let you know what's going on in my world! I hope you enjoy 🙂
1. Travelling… home?
In my job here in Penang I am super fortunate to get great holidays, and in December last year I had three weeks off… two of which I used to head back to my old home town of Melbourne, Australia. So, in a way I went home! But who really knows where home is now! I mean, we've been living in Malaysia well over a year now, and made that feel like home. But whenever hubby and I are chatting we always refer to Zanzibar as home because that's where we met and made our first home together.
Then again, for me, Melbourne will always be original home… full of family, old friends and happy places 🙂 It was so lovely to spend time there again and I was very fortunate to be there in Aussie summer (I just counted the other day, it's been three years since I've been anywhere cold! Yay for tropical life!!!) So there were lots of BBQs, beach days and fun times.
Whenever I catch up with my old school friends we always marvel at how different our lives have become. In school we were friends because we had so much in common… and now we've all branched out in our own directions. But the best thing has been seeing how so many of us have taken these amazing, scary, circuitous routes to doing something we find fulfilling. There are so many different paths, and if things don't work out the way you planned there is always another path with another lesson to learn as you go! I feel like my friends and I are living proof of that!
Catch ups with family were especially fun this time as we've reached the stage where my cousins are getting married and having kids. And it is SO nice to have littlies around at family gatherings again! (The last time that happened in my family I was the little one!)
2. Christmas and New Year in Penang
In a new tradition, hubby and I once again had my brother come and stay with us for Christmas in Penang. It was so fun, and much more relaxed than a big family Christmas (which I do still love!) I felt more confident and comfortable this year too after having done it the year before, which had been my first time to be 'The One In Charge Of Christmas'! I felt very 'adult' being responsible for all cooking, decorating and present buying (even doing the classic wife thing of buying presents for me from hubby!)
My bro also stuck around for New Years' which was great. We spent plenty of time relaxing, watching movies and swimming in the pool! I love our apartment because we have a room for guests and a sweet pool to chill in 🙂
3. A full-on teaching term
Like the weirdo I am, I was actually pretty excited to get back to work in 2017! Really! I had a big challenge in Term 1 (which has just finished) of teaching an intensive course to school leavers in preparation for taking a Cambridge English Exam, and I was actually looking forward to doing something a bit different. (All my other classes are with young learners).
The workload was really intense and just so constant – no let up, I felt like I was chasing my tail the whole time! But I loved spending that much time with the students and building a fun rapport with them, as well as challenging myself to be a better teacher always making new topics interesting, clear and relevant to them.
To be honest I am so glad that the intensives only last one term! It feels nice now to be settling into a calmer routine with plenty of time to plan for my young learner classes. But I feel like I can look back with pride on the work I did in Term 1. (And it IS important for everyone to take time to reflect on your accomplishments and give yourself a pat on the back!)
4. (Personal) personal development update!
As you know I love learning more about living life to the fullest and self-improvement. I'm definitely no guru, just someone sharing my story as I try to do my best! Over the last couple of months I have had two main focuses: having better mornings, and improving my health and fitness. I would generally consider myself a healthy person, but over the last year I'd noticed my levels of activity decreasing.
Obviously moving to a new country and starting a new job brought with it challenges, and I was adjusting to quite a different lifestyle. In Zanzibar so much exercise is incidental; everywhere I went I was either walking or bike-riding, and the community projects we did were often very physical, like building and maintenance work. Leisure time was spent on the beach playing volleyball or swimming.
But in Malaysia I drive to work and sit at a desk. In the evenings I'm so tired that I just want to read or watch a movie. There's next to no incidental exercise, and I wasn't making time to exercise. Something had to give! And so began the slow process of transforming my mornings.
I'm sure I'll write a post about this soon because I know that working on a productive morning routine is something that can benefit everyone (even non-morning people like me!) But for now, just a quick run down of what I have been working on and how I've built it up
- waking up 20 minutes earlier than usual, simply to give myself more time so that I wasn't rushing
- waking up 20 minutes earlier than usual and doing 10 minutes of yoga
- waking up 30 minutes earlier than usual and doing 10 minutes of yoga plus some strength and conditioning exercises
- waking up 30 minutes earlier than usual and doing a 10, then 15 and now 20 minute cardio or toning (alternating) workout
It's still early days and although there's not a huge difference in terms of my appearance yet, I can definitely feel the difference. I notice when walking, driving and sitting at my desk that my core is engaged and I feel stronger and less susceptible to back and leg aches. Yay! I'll keep you up to date with my progress 🙂
5. Island Adventures
Two very exciting posts are coming up soon detailing the amazing holidays we had first in Lawgkawi (with my parents) and then in Koh Lipe (just last week!) I could honestly go on and on about how much I loved both these spots and how beautiful they are but I won't! A few teaser pictures, and then you'll have to pop back once I get those posts up!!!
Well folks, that's it for now! Thanks for sticking around 🙂 Hope to see you back here soon!

Hello From Pyangyong! Yes. You read that right. This is Kim Jong Un, North Korea's only democratically elected dictorial tyrant typing these words you are reading now. A few weeks ago I volunteered at the San Francisco Sketch Comedy Festival undercover as a mid 40s western european looking involuntary born again male virgin with brown hair and hazel eyes. No one attending the SF Sketchfest shows at the Eureka Theater in San Francisco's financial district knew the gentle shepherd of the North Korea people was selling them beer, wine, bottled water & peanuts, sometimes using Apple Pay to conduct the transaction.
Volunteers at SF Sketchfest sometimes get to interact with the performers. I have met, in my disguise, Adam Scott, Thomas Lennon, Michael Ian Black, Harland Williams, Laraine Newman, Kevin Pollak, Andy Daly and many more.
This year I met Erica Rhodes, a Los Angeles based stand Up comedian who performed with Dana Gould, Kate Micucci, Arden Myrin, Chris Hardwick and others in a comedic game show. After their performance I also checked out Erica's standup act on Youtube. When I Watched her Youtube videos I thought her comedy reminds me a lot of Steven Wright's, one of the funniest standup comedians from New England. She's very funny. The HarryBalls.com team officially declares Erica Rhodes the next Steven Wright.

Because of the influences of the Evil Ones, those being the evil spirits that instigated the Rebellion and brought about the Default. Nature doesn't fear death, and neither would you, had you been left to grow up normally and naturally. However to make you fear death is a way to keep you under control, to keep you from understanding that life continues on. If you keep seeing that only the physical is important, then you won't ask too many difficult to answer questions about spirit life. And you won't work out that you're being led astray by spirits who seek to keep their power over you.
You see James, the Evil Ones, the Lucifer's, Satan's and Caligastia's, who are talked about in The Urantia Book, all had overseeing roles of Earth. From higher levels in the spirit worlds they were to look after humanity and help humanity to grow and evolve in truth, and so also in your understanding of all things to do with the spirit as well as the physical. However, their rebellion was their choosing to go against Mary and myself, and the Mother and Father. They claimed that God was too controlling, and that we could all, and should all, take matters into our own hands - out of God's, and make our own way in Creation. They said we were mad to keep being dictated to by a God that pretended to be all-loving, because if God really was all-loving, then They'd not have all the spiritual laws that there are, and that we'd all be free to do as we pleased. And that way of being, for you are all then effectively your own god and master of your own destiny, many lower and lesser spirits and angels found appealing. And because humanity was only in its infancy when these higher spirits finally decided to go it alone and turn their back on God, you were easily influenced by them. And as they were all spirits, how they controlled your long-ago cave men ancestors and such was through fear. So they made you fear the unknown, the spirit world. And in doing so, you started to fear yourselves. And they've worked on you for a long time, all the way up until Mary's and my coming, subtly influencing you from spirit, keeping you 'earth-bound' you might say, and ensuring that you don't honour and live true to your feelings. For if you did, you've have out-grown their controlling ways, you would have advanced to a level of truth that showed them up for not actually caring about you and having your interests at heart as they told you they did. And you'd have chosen to divest yourself of their evil and rebellious ways.
However their control was so strong over you, and once they coerced Adam and Eve into defaulting, then they more or less had you entirely under their power. And so they wanted you all to remain ignorant of higher levels of spirit life and the greater spirit universe, all so you'd die and wake up still ignorant in the mind mansion worlds, there to stay looking to them as the Great Ones, for they would sit on the thrown being the Great Lady and Lord of All - in short: God.
So had you not come when you did and de-power them ending the Rebellion, then when I died, I would have gone into the mind mansion worlds there to see the Caligastia's and Satan's and Lucifer's all as the god of my new spirit life.
Yes, I see it now from what you've previously told me. Those mind spirits that are transcending the mind mansion worlds, trying to become enlightened reaching nirvana and their bliss states of being; trying to merge with or become part of the God of Mind, are really just trying to emulate the Lucifer's and Satan's. But because of yours and Mary's coming, the Evil Ones are no longer there in those mind worlds, or able to come into them, so these mind spirits are actually on their own, striving to be the top dogs - gods, as it were.
Yes. And up until recently, the Caligastia's and Daligastia's were still in the mind mansion worlds, but now as they've been removed, humanity is free to live to its ultimate conclusion in it's negative state, living with your mind completely in control of yourself, being as you said, gods yourself, however it's all only a fantasy, it's gods within your own minds.
In our own lunch box! And so all those people and mind spirits who are looking to advance their minds are all going this way, to ultimately become gods. It is what some in the New Age talk about, that we're all gods, and we have to develop our god-self to become fully self-realised.
Yes, and what such people will have to realise is that it's a dead end, that it's giving over to your mind completely at the expense of your feelings. And so in your minds ego you can fantasise you are as God is, however you're nothing, and will never, and can never be, ANYTHING like the Mother and Father. You are of Their image, and as I've told you in the Padgett Messages, you can become of Their essence by longing for and receiving into your soul, Their Divine Love, but you will forevermore always remain Their child. You can become at-one with Them, as you will upon your arrival on Paradise and when you personally meet your Heavenly Parents; and your soul through eternity will become increasingly divine like They are, but still you'll always know, you are NOT god. I know it, I AM NOT GOD, I AM ONLY STILL AND WILL FOREVER BE, A CHILD OF GOD, AND I'M VERY HAPPY WITH THAT, despite what many believe, saying I am God and of God. And were I to delude myself into thinking or believing I were God, then I'd be just like these mind spirits, and so I'd have rebelled against the Mother and Father, joining the Lucifer's camp.
And so people only say and believe you are God, because it's all part of the confused mess being handed down by these mind spirits.
So if the Lucifer's are not in the mind mansion worlds, that leaves, so I would imagine, a huge power vacuum to be filled by wannabe gods.
Yes, and many such mind spirits are heavily involved in vying for such power. Other's aren't, more intent on their own personal power trip, but there are a few groups of very dominant and controlling mind spirits.
Okay, and so following the feeling I've got as you were saying that, I'll complete what you were going to say. And these groups are heavily influencing us on Earth.
Yes. And it's important for you to come to see this and feel it yourself James. It's not just for me to tell you. So can you see how you've been working your way to understanding this over the years and through all we've spoken about?
I can. It's dawning on me now, it's all slotting into place. Another piece of the puzzle.
So Jesus, truly, how much are these higher mind spirits influencing humanity?
A lot James, a great deal, and more so every day. As I said, it's only been within the last thirty years that the Caligastia's and Daligastia's and all their support crew have been banished to the prison world, so these mind spirits are suddenly finding they are no longer answerable to anyone, there is no longer anyone above them, there is no longer any higher spirits telling them what to do and how to be. They are in the top spots, and I can tell you, some of them are relishing their new found power.
You see James, it's been very sudden, for one thing, they accepted, and many of them having been in these upper mind planes a very long time, even well before my and Mary's coming to Earth, that they'd never be the top spirits, that there'd always be the likes of the Caligastia's over them. And so they have long since accepted that, and so have striven to be their right hand man so to speak, and this is both women and men mind spirits equally. But all of a sudden, their controllers are no longer there, suddenly vanished, and even though they can't explain where they've gone to, do you think they care. But during the past years they've thought their controllers would return any day soon, but as time passes, they are no beginning to think that, and now thinking that perhaps they won't come back, and so you can imagine how that's making them feel.
Very excited indeed. It's like a story in one of the fantasy novels I used to read - like many of the stories.
Yes, I can understand, however it's very real and very true, and it's having a profound affect on humanity. So these groups with their new found confidence and all the false power that comes with it, are beginning to assert themselves over humanity, taking over the roles of the Evil Ones. So you see, all of this what you call the End Times, all the so-called 'Quickening', apart from the natural changes taking place within and around the Earth, is coming from these high sixth world mind spirits.
And how are they influencing us?
All the usual ways. Influencing certain minds. They can to some degree accelerate people in their careers, give people ideas, visions, feelings and thoughts, and close the doors on others. You'd be hard pressed to see it in action and I'm not going to name names, however if one wants to be a power-player on the world scene of humanity, then more than likely one will also be accompanied by such spirit presences. However as with all things, different people are open to and so susceptible to such things, and it's not necessarily a case of judging someone as being evilly minded as being under the influence of these spirits, because just as many people who'd be said to be kind, caring and loving, are also heavily influenced by them. Such spirits have a far better understanding of human nature than anyone on Earth does, and a bigger view of life on Earth, and unlimited time to play with.
Okay, but really, so what, humanity has, so you say, been influenced by mind spirits forever, so what's new, other than they might now have more power.
And I agree with your sentiments James, and what is new, is that such new found power they have will be going to their heads - or I should say minds, and this is going to exert a great unseen pressure on humanity, all of which will lead it to literally crack, as in break down, like one would have a mental breakdown. This being all part of the End Times.
Okay, so we're going to fuck ourselves up even more with this even greater pressure and influence from spirit.
Yes, all which is needed to bring about the desired changes that are to take place.
All right, but what about the little person who has no power, nor is interested in having any. I'm sure the mind spirits won't be bothering with them.
No they won't, and for such people it is hoped they will like the idea of taking their lives further into their own hands by doing as Mary and I suggest, that being by deciding to accept all their feelings and stop denying them. To break the control your mind has over you, to accept all your feelings, express them, and seek their truth, instead of doing as you do and deny them.
And in doing that, you'd also presumably be stopping any mind controlling influence such mind spirits might have over you.
Wouldn't these mind spirits try and stop me, try and stop you saying all of this to me or me putting out in public?
They won't like it, once you start going public, however they'll be powerless to do anything about it. Certain universal laws apply preventing any mind spirit interfering with a spirit or person who is striving to live true to themselves. The truth you are evolving in your soul will prevent them from being able to influence your mind. And also you, as will anyone else, mortal or spirit, who seeks the truth of him or herself through their feelings, have many spirits about you that are free of their evilness, having healed it, so are higher in truth than such mind spirits. And how it works is the one with the higher truth in their soul also has a higher light in their being, and that light repulses all that are living untrue, such as the mind spirits, and people on Earth who are only intent in living untrue through their minds.
Yeah, well that light must be doing a good job keeping everyone away, because I sure don't have any friends.
You don't want any friends James, and it's not for you or Marion to have any anyway, not until you've finished your healing. Friends would only distract you both too much. You've had people come into the periphery of your lives, all to help stir up more bad feelings and to help you see things about yourselves, but not to distract you.
I certainly don't want to be distracted, it's all I want to do. I don't even want to get a job as that too would be too distracting. I want to heal myself and be true, and heal myself all just with Marion - in our relationship together. And I've actually long since felt that such mind spirits can't affect me in any way. Once I started consciously longing for the Divine Love, that ended all of that.
So if people,- and years ago when I was conducting Divine Love meditation groups, I met quite a few people worried about spirits trying to possess them or interfere with them - want to stop such spirits meddling in their minds, they should long for God's Divine Love and start to honour their feelings and do their souling-healing.
Yes, it's the only way to protect yourself fully, if you are worried about it. But for most people who never give a thought to spirits, good or bad ones, it will be of little concern to them, however they should still be concerned about the wellbeing of their soul.
And all that 'surrounding yourself in white light to protect yourself' stuff-
All wishful thinking James. It does nothing. Your mind can't even create such 'white light'. It's just fantasy-land material, and the more one indulges in it, the more one will draw to oneself, and indeed make oneself more available to, the very evil spirits one is trying to protect oneself from.
So Jesus, something like the global financial madness that I read about, the bankers printing endless paper money, and all the currency wars, all that sort of stuff which just seems to get more mad as trillions and trillions of dollars are given to the hands of a few who are free to do as they please with it, whilst billions of people are starving and living on the poverty line, is all part of this wind-up by the light from these mind spirits.
Yes, it's all coming to a head, it's out of control, a run-away train. And it's all being added to and fuelled by on a soul level, with the incoming soul-light signifying the end of Mary's and my age and the beginning of a new spiritual age. The 'speeding up of life' that many people talk about that they feel is a real thing, the vibration is indeed increasing, however not as the alternative spiritualists believe or think it is. And along with this inner soul-light is light coming from deep with the universe, from Paradise, inner 'star-light' you could say, and that too is affecting the physical planet and solar system.
So it's all coming together for one big crushendo - I don't know whether to scream with the horror of it, or be happy that possibly the whole rotten lot might collapse.
I'll leave you with those feelings James, if you feel worried about it, more bad feelings to express to Marion.
Yeah I know. Thank you Jesus. I'll speak to you soon.
Until then, James - Jesus of Nazareth.

TLG's on-site interpreters can converse with groups or individuals in over 175 languages.
The Language Group has many years of experience providing high quality interpreting services to a range of clients in the public and private sectors. We currently supply interpreters to the US Department of Treasury, US Army Corps of Engineers and Virginia Department of Social Services to name a few.
It is important to remember that language interpreting is a discipline distinct from translation and requires a linguist with good delivery, good diction, and the ability to quickly articulate the same word or sentence into another language. The Language Group only works with discreet interpreters with proven track records.
Quality interpreting services require close cooperation between The Language Group and our client prior to the beginning of the assignment. We insist that you provide us with as much background information as possible in order to ensure that the interpreters are properly prepared.
Choosing the proper Interpreting Service
There are many occasions where the translation of the spoken word needs to be instantaneous – during meetings, conferences, interviews or public seminars, for instance. We can provide a full range of interpreting services to suit your specific requirements.
Depending on the context of the event, specialized interpreting services will be required. Any type of interpreter can be requested from our website. If you need help deciding which type of interpreting needs you have, call us at 757-431-9004 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Some possible situations where you may need an interpreting service include conferences, contacting an overseas office by phone, or escorting your overseas clients around your local facilities.
Conferences may require a team of interpreters and special equipment. We can help you evaluate your needs and provide the most appropriate solution.
As well as spoken languages, we are also able to provide sign language interpreters for the same situations.
When the requirement is ongoing, unexpected, or urgent, we are able to provide telephone interpreting service. We can connect you to an interpreter in under a minute, based on the information you provide. The preferred method is a three-way conference call, although you can also use this service by passing a single phone between you.
The right interpreter for you
Because of the variety of situations and contexts which may require an interpreting service, it is important to make sure the interpreter we assign is suitable for your needs. For example, in a legal or medical setting, the interpreter must have training in that field in order to provide an effective service. We can provide translators trained in any field, but it should be noted that costs vary considerably depending on the level of specialist training.
Interpreter Travel Arrangements
Travel is an important consideration when arranging an interpreting assignment. With this in mind, we've designed our system to minimize the cost and time factors involved in travel:
- Our system manages a database of qualified interpreters all over the country
- Interpreters are always sourced as locally as possible
- Public transport will be used whenever practical
- Our account managers will inform you if telephone interpreting may be suitable for your requirements

My article on world stock prices today includes the following paragraph, in which an economist commented on evidence that companies were cutting jobs:
Paul Dales, an economist with Capital Economics, pointed to the survey in forecasting that the February employment report will show a decline of 785,000 jobs when it is released on Friday. If so, it would be the largest one-month decline in employment in nearly 60 years.
A reader rightly takes me to task for that, saying that to compare figures over such long time frames one should use percentages.
On that basis, a decline of 785,000 jobs would represent a loss of 0.58 percent in a month. That would be the largest since the number of jobs declined 602,000, or 0.74 percent, in December 1974.
That is bad enough.
In terms of total jobs, the reference to almost 60 years ago was to a decline of 834,000 jobs, or 1.9 percent of those with jobs, in October 1949. That decline was largely because of strikes in the coal and steel industries, rather than to a severe recession.

Constable: Is that mushroom in your yard tasty or deadly?
By Burt Constable
I'll take a bite from the nonwormy part of an apple that falls from our backyard tree. I'll chew on stems of clover in our grass. I'll nibble on mint that grows wild near our fence. But I won't eat anything else I find in our yard, even when it's an unopened bag of Cheetos Crunchy Flamin' Hot Limon Cheese Flavored Snacks chips from the nearby 7-Eleven.
Some lawn-grazers aren't as picky.
That's why the Illinois Poison Center gets 150 calls a year from folks who eat mushrooms they find growing in their yards, parks and forest preserves.
"We get one batch in the spring and another in the fall," says Carol DesLauriers, senior director of the poison center. "There are a couple of really toxic mushrooms in Illinois."
Unlike poisonous spiders or snakes, which often have distinct markings or bright colors to warn of the danger, poisonous mushrooms can be pretty vanilla.
"A lot of toxic mushrooms can look like regular mushrooms," warns DesLauriers, who has a doctoral degree in pharmacy and is board-certified in toxicology.
Many local mushrooms can make you sick.
"Yeah, you'll be miserable for a day, but the other two will destroy your liver," she says, highlighting the dangers of the Amanita bisporigera and the Galerina marginata.
The Amanita bisporigera looks more appetizing than most store-bought mushrooms. The cap, stem and gills are a pristine white, as is a ball at the base of the stem. But don't be fooled.
"It's known as 'the destroying angel,'" DesLauriers says, noting that one helping of the Amanita bisporigera can kill a person who doesn't seek medical attention quickly. "People sometimes need a liver transplant."
Nearly as toxic is the Galerina marginata, which often is regarded as just another "little brown lawn mushroom," she says.
In the children's books about Babar the Elephant, the elephant king dies after eating a toxic mushroom. You can find similar stories on websites dedicated to mushroom foragers. Even the Mushroom Council, established by Congress to promote mushrooms, warns on its website: "Because there are thousands of varieties of inedible and poisonous mushrooms, it's important to never eat wild mushrooms without the guidance of a trained mycologist, or mushroom expert."
Fortunately, the poison center can call on several mycologists, including Greg Muller at the Chicago Botanical Society.
"This is a booming year," Muller says. "We get good edibles and a number of calls to the poison center."
Some calls are from parents whose toddlers grabbed a snack from the yard. Some are from people who misidentify a 'shroom, or confuse psychedelic with poisonous. Pet owners call, too. Some mushrooms that might not sit well on a human stomach can kill a dog or cat.
"If you've got mushrooms in your lawn and you've got kids or pets, pluck them and throw them in the garbage," DesLauriers says. "Our strong recommendation is not to pick and eat wild mushrooms."
Just as homegrown tomatoes are tastier than those on grocery shelves, wild mushrooms boast extra flavor, says Muller, who has written books on edible mushrooms.
"But there are no simple rules," Muller cautions, noting the poison found in the Amanita mushroom family "is one of the most toxic natural substances on Earth."
While numbers fluctuate, eight or nine people die each year from eating a toxic mushroom. "We've had a lot of people get pretty sick, maybe wish they'd die, but we haven't lost anybody in recent years," Muller says of Illinois.
Members of the North American Mycological Association have a wise saying:
"There are old mushroom hunters and there are bold mushroom hunters, but there are no old-and-bold mushroom hunters," Muller says. "There are those who live on the edge, and that's who the Poison Center calls me about."
If you have concerns about mushrooms or any toxins, call the poison center at (800) 222-1222 or visit illinoispoisoncenter.org.

Mindfulness is an effective treatment for stress, depression, anxiety and other mental health challenges. It is such a valuable technique that we use it in many of our inpatient, outpatient and day patient treatment programmes. Mindfulness can be described simply as learning to control your focus of attention. Through practising mindfulness you notice your thoughts, feelings and body sensations. Once you are aware of them you are better placed to manage them. That sounds very simple but, because it is very different to how our minds normally behave, mindfulness takes a lot of practice.
In this film Christos Papalekas, Psychotherapist at the Priory Hospital Roehampton, together with Priory therapists and service users, describe what mindfulness is, and the enormous benefits it can bring.
There are two ways to practice mindfulness – through mindfulness meditation and living mindfully, moment by moment. Mindful meditation involves sitting for a period of time, observing your breath, and noticing any thoughts that arise. It is common during meditation to think about the past or jobs on your to-do list, or even fantasise about the future.
Watching your thoughts as they arise can be quite revealing. It makes you realise what your mind focuses on, and how much energy you spend thinking about the past and the future, rather than the present moment. Mindful meditation trains you to notice each thought as it arises but, rather than follow where that thought leads, to re-focus your attention on your breath and the present moment.
Mindfulness is not just about meditation. While meditation helps you to train your mind to focus on each moment, mindfulness is also about paying full attention during your day-to-day activities, such as commuting, working and doing household chores. There are many ways to integrate mindfulness into daily life. As mentioned in the film, it can start with something as simple as paying full attention to what you are doing at any given moment, for example the sound, smell and feel of brushing your teeth.
Christos Papalekas has also created a three-minute guided mindful meditation that will enable you to refocus your mind whenever you feel your attention is wandering, or when you need a break because life has become overwhelming.
The effectiveness of mindfulness is well-documented. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) for the prevention of relapse in recurrent depression. It combines mindfulness techniques like meditation, breathing exercises and stretching with elements from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help break the negative thought patterns that are characteristic of recurrent depression.
Research has found that mindfulness in the workplace could be an effective intervention to target "high stress levels, sleep quality, and autonomic balance" (Wolever et al, 2012).

Probation and other Common Sentencing Terms Explained
First-time defendants are often bewildered by how fast things can happen in a courtroom, and they are left wondering if their "suspended" sentence or "probation" is a good thing when brought up on misdemeanor charges such as driving under the influence (DUI) or petty theft. This article briefly explains what some of the more common sentencing terms mean, although if you have a competent criminal defense lawyer representing you, the explanation will be much more in-depth.
"Probation" and "suspended" sentence often go hand in hand. When a judge finds you guilty of a misdemeanor, a jail sentence is imposed. However, there are circumstances where the judge will decide that instead of sending you directly to jail to serve out your sentence, the sentence is "suspended" and you are granted probation terms instead. In effect, the judge is saying that you can avoid going to jail provided you satisfy the conditions of probation such as not getting arrested again for the same offense.
A "suspended" sentence is just that; it's like an axe hanging over your head. If you commit another crime within the probation period or violate any of the terms of your probation, the axe will fall and you will go to jail to serve your sentence.
Probation is usually granted to people who are first-time offenders. Judges tend to be more lenient towards those who have a clean record prior to the charge because the presumption is that it was a mistake that will not be repeated. It's not as good as a dismissal, because you still get a misdemeanor conviction tacked on to your record, but it's better than going to jail. Also, if you complete your probation without trouble, your misdemeanor charge may qualify for expunction. Expunction is basically removing the charge from your record. This is not an easy process, but it can be done with the help of an expunction lawyer.
Obviously, you will want to complete your probation, but if circumstances lead you to violate any of the terms i.e. inability to pay the imposed fine, your lawyer may still be able to argue for reinstatement of your probation by asking for a "dismissed" or "suspended" fine if you do not have the means to pay it. The court may consider to dismiss a fine outright i.e. never collect it or to order other conditions in lieu of the fine i.e. traffic school, thus effectively suspending it until completion of the requisite conditions, at which time the fine is considered no longer collectible.

This debate is focused on what the Bible says about predestination and election (They are very closely related to one another).
To give my opponent some understanding of my view on the subject matter, i can merely say i am a five point Calvinist; I believe in total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace, and perseverance of the saints.
I believe that God (Jesus) chooses to save some, and allows others to die in their sin.
I believe that one cannot choose God, rather God has chosen by His eternal decree those whom He will save.
I believe that God is perfect, loving, and just; God is exactly what the Bible says He is.
I believe the Bible is eternal, and transcendent; The Bible should be standard of truth when discussing this topic.
Now, after this being said, I will clearly state, "I am in full support of the doctrine of predestination."
To my respected opponent-
I would hope that if you take this argument you are a Bible believing Christian, and or one who does not believe in the God of the Bible and would present an argument based from the Bible. If an atheist would like to address this argument, i would like to suggest a slight shift from an argument of predestination, but rather an argument of philosophy. An example of a slight shift unto a philosophical argument may propose this question: How can an all loving God send people to hell? or, If God has predestined some to be saved, and the rest to eternal condemnation, is there any one point man can make self-willed decisions?
I am looking forward to an intellectual and beneficial debate. As stated before, i did not begin my argument, and i used my first round to set the premises for the debate. With the perimeters set, and my position shared, it would be appropriate for the opposing side to present their beginning argument(s).
I'll use my entry into the first round to define my position. I am not a Calvinist and dispute all five points, but this debate is focused mostly on Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, and Irresistible Grace.
I'll describe my take on all five here:
Total Depravity - Since Calvinists came up with the TULIP acronym, they were able to pick terms that on their face are hard to disagree with. The Bible is clear about the fallen state of man. However, Calvinists use this term to mean more than the doctrine that man is fallen and evil in nature. They go a step further and proclaim that they are so evil that they are incapable of choosing God instead of the flesh. Total depravity, as Calvinists think of it, precludes any meaningful notion of free will. I contend that man has known the difference between good and evil since Eden, and have been making choices ever since. The apostle Paul went around the Roman world preaching the gospel of salvation, some chose to listen and others chose not to. Men have free will, this includes to accept God or reject him. God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to eternal life. If man weren't granted free will, wouldn't God simply predestine everyone to salvation?
Unconditional Election - As I dispute the whole doctrine of predestination, its hard to deal with this point specifically. My understanding is that man has free will, and his salvation is contingent on his choice to accept Christ or not.
Limited Atonement - I believe that this is contrary the message of salvation. The atoning blood is available to all who believe, and there is no limit to its potential efficacy. While I can see where the other 4 points have some Biblical support, I cannot think of the Scriptural support for limits on the Atoning power of Jesus.
Irresistible Grace - It is my position that not only can man freely come to God, but that they can also reject him. Jesus stands at the door and knocks. He will come in with anyone who hears and opens, which is Biblically described as an "if." (Rev 3:20)
The last one isn't related to predestination. The perseverance of the saints means basically "once saved , always saved." I think that Matthew 12 and Hebrews 6 pose a serious challenge to this doctrine, but that's another debate.
I've now defined my position. I now welcome the "pro" to make his next argument and look forward to digging into this issue a little deeper.
You said the Bible is clear about the fallen state of man. I would agree. But, then you stated short after, "They go a step further and proclaim that they are so evil that they are incapable of choosing God instead of the flesh." You can say it is a "step further," but i would say it is an elaboration of their understanding of scripture.
Creating a case for total depravity-
Adam and Eve, seduced by the temptations of Satan, ate from the forbidden fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden (Gen. 3:2-7,13. 2Cor. 11:3). By their sin against God, they fell from their original righteousness and community with God and thereunto became dead in their sin (Gen. 3:6-8, Rom. 3:23, Gen. 2:17, Eph. 2:1, Col. 2:13). Romans 3:23 says that "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." Even within the same chapter, starting in verse 10-- "There is none righteous, not even one; there is none who understands, there is none who seeks for God; all have turned aside, together they have become useless; there is none who does good, there is not even one. Their throat is an empty grave, with their tongues they keep deceiving. . . Destruction and misery are in their paths. . . There is no fear of God before their eyes." In addition, Genesis 6:5 states, "Then the Lord saw that wickedness f man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually." Ephesians 2:1 quickly says, "And you were dead in your trespasses and sins," and verse 5-- "even when we were dead in our transgressions. . ." Within these two verses in Ephesians i would like to expand on some of the words and their meanings. The word "in" indicates the realm or sphere in which unregenerate sinners exist. They are not dead because of sinful acts that have been committed but because of their sinful nature (Mt 12:35; 15:18,19). Then the next word to emphasize is dead. Dead means to be not living; when one is dead they cannot feel, think, reason, touch, smell, hear, etc. Far more than anything else, a spiritually dead person needs to be made alive by God. We would both agree that Salvation brings spiritual life to the dead (Rom. 6:1-7). The power that raises believers out of death and makes them alive is the same power that energizes every aspect of Christian living (Rom. 6:11-13). In addition, Romans 9 specifically states in verse 16, "So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy." 'IT' --God's gracious choice of certain people unto eternal life (Rom. 8:29) 'WHO WILLS' --Salvation is not initiated by human choice, even faith is a gift of God (Rom. 1:16, John 6:37, Eph. 2:8,9). 'WHO RUNS' --Salvation is not merited by human effort (v11).
Everyone is born into sin (Psalm 51:5), and reinstated-- "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23)," there are none who do good and none who seek for God, all in the unregenerate state are dead in their transgressions, and the unregenerate are constrained by their sin making them unable to choose God.
Summary for first point--
Man was directly and immediately created by God in His image and likeness. Man was created free of sin with a rational nature, intelligence, volition, self-determination, and more responsibility to God. God's intention in the creation of man was that man should glorify God, enjoy God's fellowship, live his life in the will God, and by this accomplish God's purpose for man in the world. In Adam's sin of disobedience to the revealed will and Word of God, man lost his innocence, incurred the penalty of spiritual and physical death; became subjects to the wrath of God; and became inherently corrupt and utterly incapable of choosing or doing that which is acceptable to God apart from divine grace. With no recuperative powers to enable him to recover from himself, man is hopelessly lost. Man's salvation is thereby wholly of God's Grace through the redemptive work of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because all men were in Adam, a nature corrupted by Adam's sin has been transmitted to all men of all ages, Jesus Christ being the only exception. All men are thus sinners by nature, choice, and by divine eternal decree.
I would like to touch on this quotation briefly, "The apostle Paul went around the Roman world preaching the gospel of salvation, some chose to listen and others chose not to." --When this is said, i am compelled to ask if you recall Paul's trip to Damascus? If so, would you agree that he didn't have much of a choice to repent?
To answer your question, "If man weren't granted free will, wouldn't God simply predestine everyone to salvation?"
--Lets say that man was not granted free will pertaining to choosing God and putting our salvation in our own hands. If this was the case, would God not simply predestine everyone to salvation? The answer is no, and this is why --Man deserves death because of their sin. But, God rich in grace and mercy decided to send His Son to save some (His elect.) Romans 9 says Jacob i loved and Esau i hated. (please read Romans chapter 9 for an accurate context). God chose one for divine blessing (Jacob) and one he left to divine judgment (Esau). Historically and in the book of Obadiah, Esau's blood line was completely erased from this planet. No bones, bodies, structures.. nothing. This was determined even before they were born. Also Jude 4 states, "For certain persons have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our God into. . ."
-Long beforehand-- Before the foundation of the world
-Marked out-- The Greek word Prografe (Pro-Groff-Aye) which translates pre-written.
Alright, well that is all i have for now. It is finals week for me at college, and i have to wake up early. If you have a rebuttal for this, awesome, i will get back to it as quickly as i can. After your rebuttal i will probably rebuttal once more, and then take the time to finish the other respected aspects of "TULIP" and how it is related to predestination and the sovereignty of God. I would also encourage you to at least read the majority of the scripture references i used. If you have the time, just don't read one verse from a chapter, but maybe read the whole chapter to get an accurate context. If you are wondering what version of the Bible i am using, i am using NASB. Please use a "subjective to majority normal" version of the Bible when quoting scripture. Examples: NIV, NASB, ESV, KJV, KJV2, NKJV, etc. Please avoid the message version, for i cannot take it serious.
thank you for reading, and i am looking forward to a probably rebuttal.
I also take issue with the notion that anyone was "with Adam." Sin entered the world because of Adam, and nearly all men have sinned since. It appears Enoch may be an exception, as well as Jesus Christ (who was born, and would have had the same predispositions as us). By arguing that we were all with Adam, I believe my opponent must contend that every dead baby or child goes straight to hell, perhaps accepting random ones or those that were descendents of the right people. God became angry with his nomadic people and barred entry into Canaan for 40 years, allowing the children who "have no knowledge of good and evil" (Deut 1) to enter the promised land. Here we see that God does not hold the children accountable for the actions of their parents. Ezekiel 18:30 reveals that God judges each according to their own merits. Here we see that God does not judge all men for the actions of Adam. Ezekiel 28:15 refutes Total Depravity in no uncertain terms: "You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, till iniquity was found in you." Ecclesiastes 7 concludes with the observation that God made men (plural) upright, but that they fell into deviancy.
In response to my question about God predestining everybody, my opponent argues for an unjust, arbitrary God that unconditionally picks favorites and directly sends others to hell who had no option to make any choice. This is not philosophically or logically consistent with the Biblical picture of a just God: That all men are condemned because of their own sin, and that all men may accept the free gift of salvation.
The term "dead" in sin simply means that one is going to receive penalty for their sins. The grace of God, which is available to all men, allows for eternal life upon acceptance.
I spoke of Paul's travels and how he exhorts people to "be saved" (be is an action verb, his listeners are urged to do something). Of course the philosophy of Free Will does not preclude God from acting very strongly in certain cases, such as the road to Damascus. I would argue that Paul still hypothetically could have rejected even that strong encounter.
In short, I believe the Bible paints a picture of a God who (while allowing physical consequences of a sin to effect more than just the sinner) judges on individual merit. All men fall short on their own sin, not Adam's, and to all men God offers salvation.
On a final note, I think the NASB is one of the best, but my favorite remains the NKJV simply because I'm used to the KJV flow. The message is not a real translation, and the NLT takes a lot of liberties in translation as well. So, we are mostly in agreement about Bible versions. Obviously, knowing Hebrew and Koine Greek would be ideal (I have a good handle on Arabic and have had the opportunity to study Hebrew, which I continue to do – I don't know Greek from Klingon), but we were "predestined" and fore-ordained to be born knowing English, weren't we?

The Niskayuna Town Board has approved an $18,600 measure to replace half of the roof on the town's senior center.
The half of the roof facing the Mohawk River was replaced when the town purchased the building and now the back half will receive the attention it needs.
Town Highway Superintendent Ray Smith said his department has been addressing leaks as they pop up, but that the roof is in such a state that it needs to be replaced.
The contract was awarded to Shear Contractors of Schenectady. Materials have been ordered and, once work begins, Smith estimates Shear will be on site for between two and four days. The multiple layers of shingles will be removed and the wood roof decking will be assessed and replaced as needed. Once complete, the new roof should last for 30 years or so.
Although there are visible dips in the roof, a full replacement of all the decking is not expected.
"This project is part of an ongoing effort to improve the facility to ensure it is safer, more pleasant and enjoyable for the town's seniors," said Councilwoman Denise Murphy McGraw.
The senior center has seen recent improvements, including some new flooring inside and new stairs from the upper parking lot and fresh plantings outside.
The center provides a variety of services to the town's seniors, including meals, social and recreational opportunities.

When I'm feeling especially conscious of the double chin effect, I do this instead.

BREAKING—Federal agents are desperately trying to hunt down the man responsible for a string of shootings in San Antonio, Texas.
KENS 5 writes:
San Antonio police, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and the U.S. Postal Inspector's Office were searching for a 'wanted person' in the North Star Mall area Tuesday.
This comes after multiple reports of a shooting nearby. Officials said the incident began with a shooting at Jim's Restaurant located at the Loop 410 and Broadway.
So far, most of our sources have been eyewitnesses—no major media outlets (Fox, Clinton News Network, etc.) have reported on this yet:
Lots of police presence going on now at North Star mall. Near Macy's, JcPenny parking lot garage. Don't forget today is Valentine's Day and get your love one that special gift! ????
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS — San Antonio police, along with federal agents from the U.S. Postal Inspectors Office, are searching North Star shopping mall and surrounding areas for a wanted fugitive.
According to MySanAntonio.com, the wanted fugitive exchanged gunfire with authorities at a restaurant near Loop 410 and Broadway before fleeing into the mall.
The suspect is also wanted in the shooting of a mail carrier in Spring Branch this weekend, according to officials.
The carrier's vehicle was stolen but later recovered. The carrier was taken to a local hospital with a gunshot wound to her leg. Her name was not released.
An associate with JCPenny said certain entrances to the store were placed on lockdown because there was a possible active shooter situation at the mall.
Mount Sacred Heart School, located about 7 minutes south of the mall, was on lockdown and release was delayed, school officials said.
Ridgeview Elementary School was placed on lockdown, but dismissal was completed, North East Independent School District Spokeswoman Aubrey Chancellor told mySA.com.
Helicopters and agents in SWAT gear swarmed the area. Residents are being told to stay indoors.
It was unclear if anyone besides the mail carrier was injured in the gunfire.
